About Omaha Egress Window Pros

Omaha Egress Window Pros specializes in one thing: getting basement egress right. That means cutting foundation openings to code, setting properly sized egress windows, and building window wells with drainage that actually keeps water away from the house — not general remodeling with egress as an afterthought.

A lot of our calls start the same way. A homeowner is finishing a basement bedroom, or one who’s already failed an inspection because the window or well doesn’t meet current Nebraska egress minimums.

Many Omaha homes, especially older ones, were built with small basement windows, or none at all, in spaces now used as bedrooms or living areas. We assess the opening, the sill height, and the well clearance against code minimums up front, so there are no surprises once cutting starts.

Every estimate we give is written and itemized — cutting, framing, window, well, and drainage broken out separately — so you know what you’re paying for before we schedule the work. We also account for local conditions when we design a well: Omaha’s clay soils and freeze-thaw cycles mean drainage isn’t optional, so gravel base and grading are part of nearly every install we do, not an upsell.

From the first call to the final walkthrough, our process stays consistent: assess the opening and check it against code, mark and cut, frame and set the window, install the well and drainage, backfill and grade, then walk the finished job with you and prep it for inspection. We’re licensed and insured in Nebraska, with 15+ years of local experience and 500+ completed projects across the metro.
